  1.0 Resource Development CCE

  To make a living as a coach, you must be able to connect with coachable people who can afford to work with you.  That's not an easy proposition.  Personal budgets are tight.  Those most in need of coaching are often the least able to afford it.  It can seem hopeless. 

  In this session, seasoned coach Chad Hall, MCC will share three approaches for getting clients who can afford coaching.  These are approaches that have worked for him and his team at StrongLead, a professional coaching firm in Hickory, NC which provides over 2500 hours of coaching per year to clients ranging from solopreneurs to non-profit leaders to millionaire business owners.

  Learning Objectives:

  • Find your why for coaching (and it can't be money)
  • Learn to put a price on your coaching (and it must be money)
  • Develop creative ways to get clients who can afford coaching AND to make coaching affordable for clients who can't otherwise pay for your coaching.

  1.5 Core Competency CCEs

  Uncertainties, complexities, and challenges can cause intense emotions to emerge for clients: fear, anger, shock, overwhelm, disappointment, and more. If you’ve found yourself not coaching at your best when these emotions surface… and wished for a do-over… you’re not alone! New coaching research reveals that even seasoned coaches inadvertently internalized strong client emotions, leading to reports of internal self-criticism, shame, broken connection, and a hyper-focus on coaching the surface of the situation vs the deeper “who” of the client. Join this compassionate, curious conversation around neuroscience-informed concepts such as the brain’s unconscious predictions, mirror neurons, co-regulation, and more. We’ll connect brain-based principles with ICF competencies and markers, supporting ourselves and our clients to explore the unknown, unwanted, or uncomfortable as pathways to evolved ways of being.
  
  

  WHAT YOU WILL LEARN: 

  • Predictions: Coaches will learn how their brain’s unconscious predictions can derail ICF 4, Cultivates Trust & Safety, as well as in-the-moment presence strategies to understand and tame fight-flight biology for ICF 5, Maintains Presence.

  • Parallelism: Coaches will apply research insights and personal lived experiences to reflect on potential parallels between client emotions and coach emotions, leveraging emotions as data for ICF 7, Evokes Awareness.

  • Permeability: Coaches will understand how to “take in, not on” some of the client’s strong emotions, aiding in ICF 7, Evokes Awareness, and supporting client openness to the unknown, unwanted, or uncomfortable that frequently lead to ICF 8, Facilitates Client Growth.

  Consider how contact lenses help us see the world more clearly. Our combination of talent strengths is like those lenses altering how we see the world around us. These talents tend to come so naturally that we don’t think about it; they are automatic. At our best, we are energized and fulfilled. At our worst, we are depleted and de-energized.

  But it’s not enough to know our strengths. We must value our contributions and what others can count on us for. It’s important to understand what conditions, through relationships and tasks, our strengths need to thrive. As leaders, we must also be aware of the strengths of those we lead and collaborate with. Rooted in positive psychology and neuroscience, this knowledge helps us to bring out the best in ourselves and others, maximize productivity and innovation, and foster well-being.
  
  

  Learning Objectives

  • Introduce a preliminary understanding of your Top 5 strengths' role in the unique value each of us brings.

  • Raise self-awareness, and “other awareness,” by focusing on what’s right, rather than fixating on what’s wrong.

  • How overuse (or underuse) of our top strengths leads to our biggest weaknesses.

  
  

  Speaker Bio: 

  Amy A. Kessler is in her element when she’s connecting with people, telling stories, and sharing fascinating insights. She has a natural gift for making others feel engaged, appreciated, and entertained all at once. Her passion for creating a sense of belonging stems from her deep belief in the power of CliftonStrengths, which highlights the unique contributions we each bring to our teams, clients, and those we lead. For Kessler, no challenge is too great—there’s always a way forward, and she’s ready to find it.

  With over three decades of experience in the corporate world, Kessler’s been captivated by what makes people not just successful leaders, but truly fulfilled in life. She spent the early part of her career in advertising, helping major brands like Gatorade and Miller Brewing Company connect with U.S. Hispanic audiences. Along the way, she earned two coaching certifications— Certified People Acuity Guide and Strengths Strategy Certified Specialist—and has made it her mission to help others discover the ease and immense value of working with a top-notch executive coach. A proud graduate of the University of Oklahoma, she’s a firm believer in the lifelong power of learning and growth.

  Recognizing the need for a single, reliable source of vetted top-tier coaches who share a unified approach, Kessler founded Potentia Coaches. Busy leaders turn to her when they need to be paired with the ideal coach—someone who can guide them or their teams to success. Potentia offers a global cadre of strengths-based executive coaches, eliminating the headache of trying to find the perfect fit. Amy doesn’t just make the connection; she ensures the coaching relationship is fruitful and enriching. “Potentia,” rooted in Latin, speaks to potential, strength, and power—the key ingredients, in Kessler’s view, for fulfillment both at work and in life.
